FYI... I'm running 16x8 ProComp Rock Crawlers with 4.25" BS and 285/75 BFG M/T's and I rub when I am fully stuffed. I dont have a lift but a 3/4" coil spacer to even out the rake. Everybody seems to say you can fit 33's stock, but you cant. Well, I should say that you cant if you wheel and stretch out the suspension. This setup will work fine temporarily, but it needs a lift...

 

cant beat paying $40 a piece for a steel rim(15in). theyre durable and if u smack it up you wont feel that big of a hit replacing it.

 

Thanks for the info and Ideas. I am still not sure what to get, ANy Idea how much my milage will drop with AT's

 

What factory rims do you have now?

 

alloy 17's

 

I've seen guys paint their alloys and actualy look better than aftermarket.

As for the AT mpg, stay with a directional pattern, like MT Baja ATZ, Pro Comp Xtreme AT, or Nitto & Toyo AT's.
The BFG's and General type tread pattern will cause more rolling resistance thus reducing your fuel mileage.

( That is old technology anyway, you'll get a smoother ride and longer treadlife from the new tread patterns.
sorry, thats my opinoin, I know guys love their BFG's )

Another factor is the size. the 33" dia is ok, but the width will hurt you. I hate to sound like a dork but the wider
the tire the more resistance you will have. Try to stay with a 285/70 or 295/70.
Hell even a 75 series if you could stand it.

OR JUST SAY "TO HELL W/ IT" AND PUT ON 35" KM2's



18" of Bad ass black

 

check this out 1.75 Daystar BB and 295/70 Terra Grapplers





HappyCurmudgeon has a sweet setup too w/ a 2" lift and 33"s





But for me . . . screw the mpg's it'll be 2.5 and 35's

{Rooster... your Jeep Is awesome}



but i like a stock look, jbmoto & cam813 hit the nail on the head

 

I have the Generals; so far, so good. Like the MO guy said, they clean-out surprisingly well. I went from a muddy patch on a hill straight to a sloping rock and scampered on up.
My opinion is that they're the low-budget winner for an all-around tire.
